We wish to appoint an enthusiastic teacher to work within the Welsh language immersion provision in Conwy. The Welsh language service, which sits within the Education Improvement Service, is committed to providing high quality education and support to pupils who have arrived at Welsh schools from a non-Welsh background and need to be immersed in the language within the Centre.
We seek a highly motivated individual who has experience of immersing new pupils in the language, who has particular experience of leading aspects of literacy within their school and who is comfortable planning the Curriculum for Wales, to be able to demonstrate a strong commitment to ensuring strong linguistic support so that our immersion learners become fluent Welsh speakers in their schools and local and wider societies. The main role of the candidate will be to support the learners in the term prior to arrival at the centre and the following term, supporting the home school teacher to be able to support the pupil within his or her's natural classroom by supporting the planning and provision.
Collaboration is an essential part of this role and the successful candidate is expected to develop internal working relationships with pupils and staff, as well as external partnerships with schools, and a wide range of professionals within immersive education networks.
We need a candidate who can also support the learning within the centre at times, model immersive education within our schools and be able to promote and support the Welsh ethos and culture in our schools.
Due to the nature of the work, the post is subject to a satisfactory check by the Disclosure and Barring Service. It is a requirement that the successful candidate will need to register with the Education Workforce Council prior to commencing employment.
Welsh Language Skills: The ability to communicate in Welsh is essential for this post. We are committed to our Welsh language and are proud of our Welsh culture. We welcome applications in both Welsh and English and application forms received in either language will not be treated less favourably than each other. We're passionate about supporting and encouraging you to use your Cymraeg whatever your level. We offer free classes at all levels, in-person and on-line to support you.
